Background: The 2008 World Health Report identifies emergency and essential surgical care (EESC) as a central component of primary health care (PHC). Inherent in this evolving paradigm is the need to develop tools for monitoring and evaluating surgical care within PHC systems. The World Health Organization (WHO) Monitoring the Building Blocks of Health Systems Monitoring and Evaluation Matrix (MBBHS M&E Matrix) provides a comprehensive strategy for assessing PHC systems but has not been adapted to monitor and evaluate surgical care.
